If that&#8217;s not enough to get you interested, then his music definitely will be.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- Random Ad stuff --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\" data-ad-format=\"auto\" data-ad-slot=\"3107208401\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-2076862002005673\"><\/ins><\/p>\n<p><script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He grew up seeking the company of the artists and deep thinkers who congregated on the porch of a local coffee shop; the inspiration of their passion and enthusiasm pushed him to picking up a guitar and properly learning how to play. He started a band, which went well for a time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 2012 he moved to Maine&#8217;s midcoast (this is where he was translating Ancient Greek), and then moved to Portland, living in a repurposed laundry, which was owned by a self-proclaimed pirate &#8211; moustache and all &#8211; think Jack Sparrow if he hoarded Twizzlers. He spent the next two years writing and recording in what was effectively a wooden box, with the aim in seeing if he could slough off some of the old vestiges of his previous writing style.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The end result was the album &#8216;Please&#8217;, which is set for release on July 26. It&#8217;s only 31 minutes long but it&#8217;s enough to get right into, as Good Service unravels his feelings of mortality following the terminal diagnosis of his grandmother and her subsequent death.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;Summer Muses&#8217;, released on July 8 from the album, comes with a striking music video which has been directed, edited, and produced by Henry Austin with help from Cody Stack, Wilder Nicholson, and Hector Magana, as well as Noah Fardon himself. It&#8217;s a 60s flavoured track; Good Service is reflective and contemplative and the jangly &#8211; almost pounding &#8211; guitar, accompanied by synths and drums. It&#8217;s got an ethereal quality that conjures up ideas of long hot summers and perhaps a little bit too much in terms of substance abuse. Languid and lethargic, Good Service ambles through the vocals which are perfectly matched in style to the instrumental track.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s a pleasant tune whose opening fools you into believing it&#8217;s going to turn out completely differently &#8211; much as musing often starts out with a completely unrelated thought to what you finish with. The foot-tapping rhythm is unrelenting, taking you back to the summer of love, or even just to a time when things were a lot different to how they are now; a whole lot less problematic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Find Good Service on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/good_service_\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Instagram<\/a>. &#8216;Please&#8217; is out July 26.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_93065\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hzZTN3rK4bQ?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Good Service - Summer Muses (Official Video)\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/hzZTN3rK4bQ\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Noah Fardon, performing as Good Service, was born in Nashville, and is now back there &#8211; with a long convoluted journey that saw him living in Maine, where he translated Ancient Greek.
